Different Post Categories Corresponding to different forums?

[admiraljuicy]

Hello! Really in love with the concept of this plugin as this brings almost seamless wordpress integration with bbpress, but I’d like to tobknow if it would be possible to crate a new topic on a forum relative to the category(ies) on posts?

For example: the post category is News + Games, by publishing that post, it gets ‘mirrored’ onto a designated forum.

Currently I tried to develop my own plugin via categories and forum IDs but I can’t get the postbto show up where I want to.

Anyway, hope this feature gets implemented in the future!

Great work as always!

Hi again,

I’d also like to know if it would be possible to add the following option:

• if the user is not logged in, they can use the default comment box and that comments gets created into a reply in the topic.

This would be a dream plugin if so.

Thanks in advance

if you allow anonymous posting in forums, this should achieve what you want b y allowing non logged in to post in the forum

dashboard>settings>forums

Sadly, it’s only half way to what I’ trying to achieve; I only want guests to post on certain forums. 😞

in which case you want to install

set anonymous posting in dashboard>settings>forums

and use topic permissions, which will let you decide which forums guests can post on

on your original question

For example: the post category is News + Games, by publishing that post, it gets ‘mirrored’ onto a designated forum.

when you create a new post, it gives you the choice of which forum to post it into.

if you want this automatically, there is a filter that would allow you to reduce to a single forum

bbppt_forum_dropdown_options

will the plugin work with logged out users?

edit: nevermind, I misread the post 😅 my question now groups be automatically when a user signs up?

Thanks!
